About the Game

You are Purrseus, hero of ancient Greece, tasked by the Gods to prove your wisdom and might by overcoming a series of challenging trials. You'll contend with puzzles, traps, monsters, and all manner of environmental danger on your epic journey. But fear not! At your disposal will be many amazing and magical items. Some trials may require you to enlist the aid of Fursephone, Purrseus' sister and fellow hero!

PROVE YOUR WORTH, HEROES!

One or two heroes can take on the many puzzling and challenging trials. Choose your actions wisely, heroes, and use teamwork when necessary! Solve each level's mysteries, collect the gems, get to the exit, ready to take on the next challenge!

AVOID MONSTERS AND DEADLY TRAPS!

Many dangers await you! Vile and deadly monsters such as the Gorgon, Cyclops, Minotaur, and more will stand between you and success. Fire, Ice, and Lightning traps will require special strategy and care to avoid!

USE MAGICAL ITEMS TO AID IN YOUR ADVENTURE!

The many levels are loaded with helpful items such as the amulet of strength, the ice bow, firepots, the teleporter staff, the reverser wand, keys, the portal bident, and more! Use them wisely, for they may spell the difference between success and failure.
